With Audio Sauce you can easily add audio effect “flavor” to your videos and save them or share them to social media quickly, while the inspiration is still fresh. Audio Sauce is designed with a simple, artist-friendly interface that encourages the user to feel like they are at play – but there is plenty of functionality underneath the hood. With its suite of essential effects you can create results that run the gamut from tasteful polish to wildly experimental. - Load any video from your device’s media library or record a new video. Then: - Boost the volume of your video with an output limiter - Add delay by tapping for tempo then choosing the rhythmic pattern you want, including regular, triplet and dotted half, quarter and eighth note divisions - Add reverb by choosing from one of four styles ranging in size from medium room to cathedral - Add “dirt” by choosing one of two modes, “mild” or “hot”, for anything from subtle tape saturation to fully obliterated distortion - Use the EQ module’s bandpass filter to roll off unwanted high or low frequencies or boost/subtract with an EQ shelf - Play with the pitch shifter and blend in any interval (including octaves, fourths and major and minor seconds, thirds, fifths, sixths and sevenths) When you’re happy with how your video sounds, save it to your device or share it directly to social media. The ability to save and share your video can be unlocked with a one-time purchase.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Camera Zoom 4 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Camera Zoom 4 has 800 ratings behind it against 118, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 39% of Camera Zoom 4's written reviews are positive against 59% of Audio Sauce's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Camera Zoom 4 ships an update every 2 months, Audio Sauce every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
